[PATCH V17 5/9] drivers: perf: arm_pmuv3: Enable branch stack sampling via FEAT_BRBE

This extends recently added branch stack sampling framework in ARMV8 PMU to
enable such events via new architecture feature called Branch Record Buffer
Extension aka BRBE. This implements all the armv8pmu_branch_xxx() callbacks
as expected at ARMV8 PMU level required to drive perf branch stack sampling
events. This adds a new config option CONFIG_ARM64_BRBE to encapsulate this
BRBE based implementation, available only on ARM64 platforms.

BRBE hardware captures a branch record via three distinct system registers
representing branch source address, branch target address, and other branch
information. A BRBE buffer implementation is organized as multiple banks of
32 branch records each, which is a collection of BRBSRC_EL1, BRBTGT_EL1 and
BRBINF_EL1 registers. Though total BRBE record entries i.e BRBE_MAX_ENTRIES
cannot exceed MAX_BRANCH_RECORDS as defined for ARM PMU.

Branch stack sampling is enabled and disabled along with regular PMU events
. This adds required function callbacks in armv8pmu_branch_xxx() format, to
drive the PMU branch stack hardware when supported. This also adds fallback
stub definitions for these callbacks for PMUs which would not have required
support.

BRBE hardware attributes get captured in a new reg_brbidr element in struct
arm_pmu during armv8pmu_branch_probe() which is called from broader probing
function __armv8pmu_probe_pmu(). Attributes such as number of branch record
entries implemented in the hardware can be derived from armpmu->reg_brbidr.

BRBE gets enabled via armv8pmu_branch_enable() where it also derives branch
filter, and additional requirements from event's 'attr.branch_sample_type'
and configures them via BRBFCR_EL1 and BRBCR_EL1 registers.

PMU event overflow triggers IRQ, where current branch records get captured,
stitched along with older records available in 'task_ctx', before getting
processed for core perf ring buffer. Task context switch outs incrementally
save current branch records in event's 'pmu_ctx->task_ctx_data' to optimize
workload's branch record samples.

In case multiple events with different branch sample type requests converge
on the same PMU, BRBE gets enabled for branch filters for the last event's
branch sample type. No branch records will be captured and processed for an
event if BRBE hardware config does not match its branch sample type, while
handling the PMU IRQ.

Changes in V17:

- Dropped Documentation/arch/arm64/brbe.rst
- Renamed armv8pmu_branch_reset() as armv8pmu_branch_stack_reset()
- Separated out booting.rst and EL2 boot requirements into a new patch
- Moved ARM PMUV3 changes into this patch
- Dropped process_branch_aborts() completely
- Added an warning if transaction states get detected unexpectedly
- Dropped enum brbe_bank_idx from the driver
- Defined armv8pmu_branch_stack_init/add/del() callbacks in the driver
- Changed BRBE driver to use existing SYS_BRBSRC/TGT/INF_EL1(n) format
